The Royal Rwizikuran Armed Forces (weRwizi: Mauto emaMambo eRwizikuru) is the armed forces of the Kingdom of Rwizikuru. Initially established in 1946 as the Rwizikuran Armed Forces (weRwizi: Mauto Ehondo eRwizikuru), after the institution of the Basic Law which established the Rwizikuran monarchy in 1964, it adopted its current name and form.
Throughout its history, it fought three wars: the Mabifian-Rwizikuran War in 1968 and 1969, the Garamburan War of Independence in 1969, and the Nativity War from 1974 to 1976, all three of which ended in Rwizikuran defeats.
History
Establishment and early years
While the Royal Rwizikuran Armed Forces have their origins in the colonial militia of the colony of Riziland, after Estmere granted independence to Rwizikuru on 2 December, 1946, the colonial militia became the Rwizikuran Armed Forces, with the first commander-in-chief being the first Rwizikuran President, Samhuri Ngonidzashe, with all equipment previously owned by the colonial militia being inherited by the Rwizikuran Armed Forces.
During the Republic, the Armed Forces served primarily as a defensive military force within Rwizikuru, and frequently dealt with insurgencies in the Yekumavirira region (today situated in Mabifia). (TBC)
